Organisers of the Tullamore Show have confirmed this morning that this year’s event has been cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic restrictions.

Speaking to the Irish Examiner, Stephen Kelly, PRO Tullamore Show, said the decision wasn’t reached lightly but following discussions with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, breeding societies and the Gardai, there was no solution from a health and safety perspective that could be reached and the committee was left with no choice but to cancel this year’s proceedings.
